Assessment of heavy metals pollution in soft sediment of the Severn Estuary and inner Bristol Channel system (2021)
Journal Article

For several decades, the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel have been contaminated by heavy metals despite the many ecosystem services it provides. Therefore, this paper is devoted to the systematic assessment of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Ni, Zn and Pb)...

Assessing the societal benefits of mahseer (Torspp.) fishes to strengthen the basis for their conservation (2021)
Journal Article

Mahseer (Torspp., Cyprinidae) are iconic, large-bodied, migratory freshwater fishes of Asian rivers. Long valued as a food source and serving other societal roles, these fishes are severely threatened by a broad range of interacting and escalating hu...

Atmospheric ammonia and nitrogen deposition on Irish Natura 2000 sites: Implications for Irish agriculture (2021)
Journal Article

With growing global demand for food, the agriculture sector worldwide is under pressure to intensify and expand, risking acceleration of existing negative biodiversity impacts. Agriculture is the dominant source of ammonia (NH3) emissions, which can...

Book

This books overviews the biology of the ruffe (a small Eurasian freshwater fish), aspects of it invasion of freshwaters in other regions, angling and cultural associations.

Case study: The coastal based approach (2021)
Journal Article

The coastal based approach: Natasha Bradshaw, Bob Earll, Peter Barham, Amy Pryor and Mark Everard analyse a way of enabling systematic collaboration and integrated delivery of environmental outcomes in the coastal zones.

Predicting atmospheric ammonia dispersion and potential ecological effects using monitored emission rates from an intensive laying hen facility in Ireland (2021)
Journal Article

Agriculture is responsible for 98% of atmospheric ammonia (NH3) in Ireland, of which pigs and poultry produce 7%; with laying hens specifically contributing 0.6%. Though a small proportion of the national NH3 total emissions, the ecological impacts o...
